The food was fantastic, and the owner was so friendly. You can taste the fresh, quality ingredients. So good. Will return and recommend to my friends

The food was absolutely phenomenal! We started with the duo appetizer, which was bursting with flavor. For our main courses, I had the sopa de tortilla , which was tender, juicy, and full of flavor.

Went Saturday night and had the worst dinner experience iv had in a long time! Took 15 minutes to get drinks and they didn't come out right. Took an additional 10 minutes for my husband to get his drink. We didn't get chips and salsa for 45 minutes and neither was made in house! The food came out bland and lacking a lot! My husband is allergic to onions so his food wasn't even edible. The owner was called over and instead of taking criticism and making right of the situation, he wanted to argue and tell us we were wrong. He didn't take off anything on our bill including the fajitas with a mound of onions which my husband again couldn't eat because he's allergic. My husbands not one to walk a tab but I wish he would have on this scenario! Over $100 for horrible service, subpar and inedible food, and nothing fresh in house made! I would give it 0 stars if I could!

Horrible first time experience and won’t be back. Took 20 minutes to get drinks to the table. Took 40 minutes to get chips and pre made salsa to the table and over an hour for lack luster food, which was lacking flavor and not made to the way it was asked to be made. My husband’s allergic to
Onions and asked for no onions and his combo fajitas came out with more onions than meat. 3 pieces of well overcooked shrimp and a flimsy 6 piece skinny sliced chicken breast for $30…seared in onions…. When he asked for the manager the owner came over and wanted to argue about everything we had experienced for our meal. We paid over $100 for sub par and inedible food. Owner wouldn’t even do what was right and remake or comp my husband’s food as he couldn’t eat it covered in onions. My tacos….lacking ALOT…. My mother in law ate 1 piece of her quesadilla. Wouldn’t recommend this place until it’s on kitchen nightmares begging for a second chance!!!

Food is good but expensive for what it is (in terms of portion & overall flavor). Service is quick & friendly, restaurant is clean.

Kid-friendliness: More geared towards adults.

Excellent authentic Mexican food and margaritas! Service was professional and the atmosphere was enjoyable and comfortable. This is my new to go place whenever I'm in town.

Place was very expensive for the quality of food. $19 for a burrito that was small and they forgot the rice and then claimed it wasn’t supposed to include rice on the menu. That probably explains why they had 1 other customer at dinner time on a Saturday night…

Parking: Lots of parking because nobody goes there

The food was barely worth the $90 spent for (2) people. Overly greasy in a bad way, lack of flavor, bad choice of meats & definitely not good mexican food. Tasted zero alcohol in my $15 margarita, it was basically a child’s smoothie. Server was nice and fast, but the food was not even close to as good as the reviews stated. Definitely a $40 meal at best for quality. Only good thing was the chips.

Drinks didn’t seem to have any alcohol in them, despite being very expensive. Food was very bland, uninteresting, and also profoundly expensive for what it was.

I’m not sure how this place keeps such a high rating. I left feeling as though I was just robbed.

Walked in with pretty high standards because we love Mexican food. But OMG did they surpass our expectations. Angel our server was AMAZING. So sweet. Made sure we had everything we needed. So patient. ABSOLUTELY one of the best server experiences. But just to add. The food was sooo good. The steak was tender. The rice and beans was beautiful. Just soooo good.

None of the food was good at all. Chicken enchilada with 0 flavor. Queso was just melted Velveeta that’s it. We sent it back. Beans and rice had an odd flavor I couldn’t pin point but it wasn’t good my friends quesadillas looked dry and she said they were alright. No music playing in there and no other guests even at lunch time so it was oddly quiet.

I ordered fisher tacos and brisket tacos and crispy Texan by phone to take home. None of the food was good at all. And the plate was way too small , only two tacos and teaspoon rice and a little bit vegetable inside. I totally paid $62 . Not worth it at all. I am not recommending this restaurant.

First of all I'm only giving the service four stars because the language barrier was a little difficult but the server was very sweet attentive and professional but I almost feel guilty because she was so extremely kind. But it was Taco Tuesday and I had the chicken fajita tacos and we also had the queso. They were excellent along with the chips and salsa also. I mean a Mexican restaurant has to come on with the chips and salsa right? The chips were light and crispy and served in a neat stainless steel cylinder. But the other thing is this is the first time in going to any restaurant ever the my sweet tea came with a lime instead of a lemon. Really surprised me but again it was a pleasant surprise and it was a delicious twist for my sweet tea so I was not disappointed there. On top of all that Mexican food being my favorite it was the first time ever that 80s music which is my genre because I'm 53 was playing in the background. I mean honestly to me that's marketing genius. At least for the Gen X crowd. Journey Bryan Adams guns n' roses and whitesnake! My girlfriend kept telling me to quiet down because I kept catching myself singing all the songs. And when is this love by whitesnake came on which is mine and my girlfriend's song it sealed the deal for me. I just thought to myself man there was too many right things going on here for us not to make this our new spot. So don't be afraid to try this place for some good Mexican grub because I don't think you'll be disappointed. I know me and my girlfriend weren't. Happy dining everyone! Would have sat outside on the patio tables with the umbrellas but I couldn't talk my girlfriend into it because it was sprinkling. Maybe next time! And you can hear the music outside too so no worries!
